- Summary:
- Pellerito (radiology, Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine and North Shore U. Hospital) and Polak (radiology, Tufts U.) bring together radiologists, surgeons, neurologists, and other specialists from the US, Canada, and Germany for 37 chapters on vascular ultrasonography. They cover basic concepts like physics and instrumentation and Doppler frequency spectrum analysis and ultrasound blood flow imaging, then the ultrasound assessment, normal findings, management, and other aspects of cerebral vessels, extremity arteries and veins, and the abdomen and pelvis. Along with new co-editor Polak and updated and expanded chapters, this edition has new chapters on evaluation of the abdominal aorta, screening for vascular disease, and correlative imaging for CT and MR angiography, as well as new color ultrasounds. Other additions include enhanced chapters on the role of ultrasound contrast in vascular imaging, the role of ultrasound in management of cerebrovascular disease, and evaluation of the hepatic vasculature, and new topics include assessment of carotid interventions, evaluation of organ transplants, and accreditation and the vascular laboratory.
